Our favorite show on television to kiki about on Manhattan Digest is of course RuPaul’s Drag Race.

I don’t get his appeal). It is going to be another night of amazing looks on the runway, which brings us to another great Top 10 list of who we think had the most gag-worthly looks over the past eight seasons of RPDR.
